New Day...

...at the office. More work to be done, more programming to hack, and to add to that, its nice and sunny outside....fiddlesticks.

For some reason, I keep on changing the name of this blog, I still can't decide on what I should call it. Any suggestions?

Just remembered the other day I was watching the BBCs Best British Sit-com, in which "Only Fools & Horses" won. Although very good, I really wanted "Blackadder" to win (it came in second nonetheless).

Nothing delights me more that to watch Edmund Blackadder to makes his jaunts and jibes at the cruel world which he is so pitifully put in. Although the shenanigans and trouble he gets into is mostly his fault, it further deepens when his dim sidekick Baldrick gets involved - ah, you just gotta see it.

I have noticed lately that I have been watching nothing but sit-coms or comedy sketches. Maybe I am trying to devoid myself of the cruel reality. I find life hard enough as it is without coming home and switch on the TV and watch dramas about murders and see that on the news that there is another suicidal bombing somewhere in the world. Its just too depressing. I think people should just lighten-up a little.

There's seems to be a lot of news with regards to the MP3 downloading problem. I don't understand why to be honest. No matter what the music industry does, it will never get ahead of the underground people who find new, innovative ways to distribute music. These people are always seem to be a step ahead. Maybe the music industry should employ these people to help them develop products/services?

Do I donwload music? Yeah, sometimes. But my taste in music is very strange and obscure. I tend to listen Japanese chart music, or Japanese soundtracks from Animes. Where the hell do I go to buy such CDs in the UK? No where in my experience. There was one place in North London, but that has gone now, so where now? Internet of course!

Well, I run out of things to say, as my life isn't that exciting, so all I have is my thoughts and ideas. Hope it doesn't bore you too much.

OK, back to work, more Perl programming....oh there's a Llama on my reference book...cool.

Amelie Back In Taiwan, Reunion With Mister Donuts

Amelie finally back in Taiwan!  Have missed her for three months, but have been busy at work, not had chance to catch up with her.  However, Amelie did some catching up herself...with her favourite Mister Donuts! You must cut down on those foods!

Happy 2nd Birthday Amelie!

Another step up the age ladder for my daughter Amelie (populary known as Tongtong too). Time certainly has flown, and with each day, it doesn't get any easier! She's started to form her own opinions and learning to express them in various different ways. She's a clever little one, but still lacks a certain amount of discipline. That's probably going to come from me, because Chien-yu is a little soft. I just hope she knows it for own good when I give her the smack-botty when she steps out of line. Last night we sang her the birthday song just before we slept (its was about 1am already). After a couple of choruses, she picked it up quickly and sang her own birthday song! Well, almost anyway, because sounded like "Hapi tu tu tu you". More practise for next year! I will add photos later on this evening.

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.
